I was introduced to the company via a friendly recruiter and when i entered the interview, the interviewer was really nice too. They were very detailed with the explanation of what was required of me and instructons to follow, pleasant experience
Back in December, I received a message on LinkedIn from a Google recruiter. Believe it or not, I genuinely thought it was fake. I ignored it. A month later, she messaged again. I still didn’t reply. I’m not proud of it, and I still don’t know what I was thinking.
Then came two missed calls from Google Recruiting, once on the 10th and again on the 21st of January. It wasn’t until the 24th, three days later, that I finally picked up. The recruiter asked if I had five minutes, introduced herself, and talked me through some open roles. I said I was interested.
She asked about my interests, the tech stacks I’ve worked on, and how I would rate myself in DSA. I said 8.5 out of 10. She also asked about the kind of work I do in my current company and when I’d be free for interviews. The call lasted around 16 minutes. Right after, I received the prep materials, the schedule, and an invite to a mock interview group.
Generally, they give three weeks to prep for the first round. In my case, I was given two. The phone screen was scheduled for February 5th, from 2:00–2:45 PM. Due to a personal emergency, I had to reschedule it and it was moved to February 7th, 8:00–8:45 PM.
As difficult as expected, i think depending on who interview you, but i got thrown a curve ball to answer like medium leetcode kind, at least is verbally and not code it out
